lsa/bxo/neurodermitis: can circumcision cause danger?

Written by martin at 13 Jul 2003 19:31:31:

hi there folks,
someone in the lichen sclerosis-newsgroup gave me this adress. i have lichen sclerosis (lsa/bxo) and my foreskin as well as the glans are afflicted.
now my doctor said somewhat the "just cut the foreskin off"-style. allegedly the problems will stop then.

my problem is that i have neurodermitis, too. and i ask myself, wheter circumcision is - in *this special case* more than a dangerous placebo.

my skin on other parts of my body is hyper-sensitive: so what happens,
if my glans is rubbing day by day at my undertrousers. can't this cause
allergic reactions?

so: do you know anyone who got more problems after the circumcision than before?

thanx

martin
